Though the movies feature the Guardians as a whole, Peter Quill, also known as Starlord, is definitely considered the main character. Played by Chris Pratt, we first meet him in Guardians of the Galaxy, learning of his origins. He had to witness the death of his mother at a young age, when she died of cancer. Not long after, he runs into a field al...
Gamora, played by Zoe Saldana, is introduced in the first movie, though in-depth details on her origins don’t come until Avengers: Infinity War. She is a daughter of Thanos, adopted by him after he raided her planet and killed half of the population. Ever since, she’s been his favorite, even though she didn’t like it. In fact, the whole reason she’...
Rocket Raccoon, also just called Rocket, is voiced by Bradley Cooper. He is a raccoon that was captured from Earth and experimented on and has metal implants in his back from the experiments. It’s unclear what exactly the experiments did, but he is anthropomorphic and can speak, so those are generally attributed to the previous experiments. Other t...

He has greenish-gray skin along with lots of swirling red markings, though it’s unclear if the marks are tattoos or also his skin. He is often see...
We don’t meet Mantis until Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume Two, and even then we don’t know much about her backstory; she is played by Pom Klementieff. It’s unclear what species she is, but it is definitely insectopd, because despite her human appearance, she has antennas on her forehead and large eyes. As far as we know, Mantis was adopted by Ego ...
Nebula, played by Karen Gillan, is an interesting member, as she was originally introduced as an antagonist. She’s a cybernetic Luphomoid with blue skin, a master assassin, and Gamora’s sister. It’s revealed that the cybernetics came because of her training with Gamora — any time she lost, Thanos took her and replaced a different part of her to try...
